In this thesis we study the interplay between electronic correlations and geometry in single-walled carbon nanotubes by microscopic model calculations. Electronic correlations are expected to be strong because of the low dimensionality of carbon nanotubes. ...
The analytical modeling and simulation of conservative electrostatic, electromagnetic and electrodynamic transducers found in microsystems using a non-linear lumped-parameter approach is presented in this paper. A comparison is made between this approach a ...
Single-cycle THz pulses with electric field strength of MV/cm are required for wide range of applications from physics to biology and medicine [1]. Presently, high fields are still challenging to produce in the THz gap (0.1-10 THz) where important condense ...
A tunable graphene-based reflective cell operating at THz is proposed for use in reconfigurable-beam reflectarrays, or similarly to implement the so-called generalized law of reflection. The change in the complex conductivity of graphene when biased by an ...
High-resolution infrared absorption spectroscopy of acetylene gas is demonstrated in dispersion-engineered photonic crystal waveguides under slow light propagation. Individual absorption profiles are obtained for both TE and TM polarizations for group indi ...

A technique to deterministically manipulate individual Carbon Nanotubes (CNT) has been the brick-wall for the boom of CNT based devices. Here we demonstrate dielectrophoresis as an efficient technique to trap individual Single Walled Carbon Nanotubes (SWCN ...
The applicability of extremely thin non-electroneutral membranes for ion-selective electrodes (ISEs) is investigated. A theoretical treatment of potential and concentration profiles in space-charge membranes of
Electrostatically driven MEMS devices commonly operate with electric fields as high at 108 V/m applied across the dielectric between electrodes. Even with the best mechanical design, the electrical design of these devices has a large impact both on perform ...
